Milka - have they changed the recipe in the last few years (a lot sweeter)?

Hi there,
Don't know if it's just me as my taste buds are changing now I'm getting older, but I always use to love Milka as it was lovely and creamy and from what I remember was not as sweet as some of the other chocolate.
Just I had a bar the other day and it tasted a lot sweeter (slightly too sweet for me).
I think they have been taken over by Kraft, so not sure if this has anything to do with it.
I had the same thing with Cadbury Cream Eggs a while back.
Cheers, Mark.

I agree with you re Milka. I bought a bar a couple of months ago and didn't like it much. Cadbury's chocolate doesn't deserve to be called chocolate like Nescafé doesn't deserve to be called coffee!
Try Lindt Excellence Extra Creamy milk chocolate 100g bar from your supermarket or push the boat out with the delicious 40% milk chocolate batons from the Hotel Chocolat range (and the caramel ones are very nice too): http://www.hotelchocolat.com/uk/shop/collections/products/luxury-chocolate#r=/GmORdqYYaKN9zU4boehH/sI6q6VI/Fum3flzL1%2BfDUNxFYKNLwztk/6ZNmH4QQ8gk3VKw7rsnB77aziKKz2JMOl471IeR6hH3lUVOTqL3MDIJkIjSXPzq4ggOChGt/alZIwwKYzyxlqu9ee/Fj3ooWkg7r3pFY2VAuIYGeYaCwJsEMYmkurkKIPfKfLKF19mR7Qca1di8ghlRbNOkrqyYyee%2BATsnNh30KwngIPqm4edxwHZOuZMM%2BBS6F1TpNP0P/rN2eXJMrCRAOtNEPwB9aRb9zrVlvwbV1w8LL2ZaOVMwXeYm/Z7942g1ZlKgWDt9RVRD5ENeEhMyrIeHcyy90eWCMsTIMjiWK%2BE3PU2QIkjHk6KtlM4eJctoSMGKU0vP9tPDIlw4zYzJ%2BAiLqEK1Cb4ShkFdcxLWjvBRZGf0sFwuRbvbubpoCaaDluExo9v28IrWdL0emuFWwFxvG9ISXiCWogV%2Bpqkr010Uu1VO3y7kzGSqQUS5AnCrH6IeqVclQJVpO1uvT77VMaAWtBB0ntq8yovQmlNk0nHnyv5%2BgahlFz%2BdZdjtNgEnnkc2r2SH2LciqYGR6hMYFaOvwbtkEGW7Kh%2BXpjcMczrCLEYU7Tf2kaKjND9RMYBDxmn8uaFWD9NA8pwBn9pv3JcaEfHAVNk0g3CnRlQSWl6TMfqrNMw1QtAUcpeFi9P8MPGGObTk54ckABK/nnc1pIEWku4Y4d5Aics4CTHXjFHmBaMYbOkzZ4YM1EZ0JIkEyGfU1Kgo1SS2vaXlYaz/l3HNsmgyxk0dj16kCIpGsOteQl5N1H1YbjEltndtM1Q1jSWUksOeldNWgd1p7kjq6ddFw50iRCRSNK9GGNyK9Jht/FWOcX9QEz436QmXCcDPeJYIew7a6RJzHM4DILdk0ddrBJ%2BpcxBVSmNuiqKiH8/ND/v8j49UGgimPH%2BnZpiG1CYFoU.
Of course there's always Galaxy if you're hard up, but it's creamy (smooth) because of the palm fat rather than the quality of the ingredients, and I'm opposed to palm fat as it's sourced from deforested rainforests.
Cheers for the reply.
Don't think I'll bother with Milka anymore (I always use to love it when I was young, but does not seem to be the same to me nowadays).
